Have you heard of the reality TV show Tulane University did?

It’s called “Architecture School.”

You guessed it. It’s all the drama, the pathos, the blood, sweat, and tears of architecture school dressed up into convenient 25 minute episodes. And, if that wasn’t enough, it’s on the Sundance channel, so you know it’ll be extra-good.

The six-part series from creators Michael Selditch and Stan Bertheaud follows a group of students at Tulane University’s prestigious School of Architecture as they submit competing designs for an affordable home in Katrina-battered New Orleans. The stakes are high: the winning model will be built during the course of the school year and put up for sale, enabling one fledgling architect to begin his or her career with a high-profile splash.

ARCHITECTURE SCHOOL opens a window onto the art and science of architecture while telling a unique and uplifting story about the literal rebuilding of New Orleans. Filmed during the 2007-2008 school year, the series follows the construction of the third home in Tulane University’s URBANbuild program, which offers fourth-year architecture students the opportunity to design and build a low-cost single-family home over the course of the school year. Founded in 2005, URBANbuild is a partnership between Tulane’s School of Architecture and Neighborhood Housing Services of New Orleans (N.H.S.), a nonprofit agency that works to restore urban neighborhoods.

I’m game. But what if, like me, you don’t have a TV? Oh, they thought of that too. You can watch clips on the Sundance channel, or, if you have the time, you can watch a full episode on Hulu.
